* While the chance of getting all those Prismatic Shards is vanishingly small, it's not meaningfully different than the chance of getting Iridium Bars. A back of the envelope calculation for 8 years of Bars returned approximately [0.000...(370 zeroes)...0002]. That may be off by several orders of magnitude, but there's no way to look at it that doesn't return an absurdly small probability. For all practical purposes, the chances of it happening are indistinguishable from zero.

Maybe an average value instead of a best-case value would be more meaningful, but the number of variables involved would make it difficult to come up with a reasonable average. I'm not going there. Instead, I'm just removing the calculation. [[User:Zendowolf|Zendowolf]] ([[User talk:Zendowolf|talk]]) 16:58, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

:Fair enough, but the point about the statue not paying for itself is what the original trivia point was all about.  [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 17:56, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
